I think the argument is definitely in favor of 1 crit glyph because a small chance to crit, no matter how small, is still infinitely more % chance to crit than 0%.

They should make LoL like pokemon where when you crit you ignore defense lolol.
Then whenever you crit it's like they have 0 armor. :D

Thats basically the crux of the argument. But people are slow to grasp my genius. Dont worry, they will come around. Just like they always do.

Until then I will toil away in the shadows, accepting all of your derision and ignorance, protecting the subforum the only way I know how.

Isn't this pretty easily math-able? 1 crit red is .93% crit chance, 1 crit AD rune is .95 attack damage. With .93% crit chance, the expected number of attacks to get a crit is around 107. In 107 attacks, .95 AD is giving you 102 total damage dealt. Assuming you have Lethality in the offense tree, this makes the crit rune worth it if you average > 92 damage on your attacks that can crit.

That said, there's always the possibility that you waste your crit on a creep or something.

We dont know exactly how crit works. I dunno about you guys, but it sure as shit felt like I crit a hell of a lot back when there was the 4% mastery.

I'm really not a fan of the idea of taking crit reds but I don't think there's much drawback to putting in a crit blue. Losing like 2 mr so that you open up the possibility of landing a crit seems more than worth it to me.

I think we should take that argument to the extreme. suppose you had a choice between a rune that would add 0.0002% crit chance and a rune that would add 0.00024 attack damage. You would take the crit rune, right, because because the chances of the ad rune benefiting you are so marginal? How far can you salami slice this up? There's no particular reason why another crit rune like this wouldn't be better than 0.00024 ad. How high do the values need to go before you switch to 'normal' valuation? Show your math.

I'd take crit just so I could go buy lottery tickets when I procced a crit.

Next question.


Wouldn't the fact that you got super lucky with crits make it less likely for you to get super lucky with the lottery? If they both have a 0.0002 percent chance then then both happening to you is like 0.00000004% chance.

Well you wouldn't consider the attacks on creeps at all either way.

The main issue is that you can't add up all those 100 attacks together. Mathematically, your overall damage output is indeed higher with AD red over crit red, but it's not a valid comparison since you're comparing the effect of 100 damage over the span of 100 attacks vs 50-70 damage over the span of 1 attack.

Over the course of laning, you can hit your opponent maybe...20 times before someone backs. Once they go back to base, the extra damage applied to them from your AD rune gets reset. Furthermore, those 20 hits occur over the period of maybe 5 minutes of laning which dilutes the significance of those accumulated 20damage even more. In contrast, landing a crit even at a low rate is usually a guaranteed advantage (not saying that advantage will translate into a win, however).

Now, you can't just keep subsituting more and more AD reds for crit reds using the same logic because you'll very quickly hit a critical point where the lost AD/MR will actually start mattering.

And suddenly you see the error of your ways. Come to the Down's side.

Req's signature is around here somewhere.

Sadly, I changed it.

I think I have an idea. I'll try 1v0 with 1% crit to hit creeps and see how many crits I get on 2k+ hits.

Maybe the crit mechanic is flawed for small numbers, right ?

I have a simple thought-experiment for you guys:

Suppose that there's a special option that says this:

For the next 99 games, you will start the game with 1 less AD
On the 100th game, you will start the game with 50 extra AD

Would you take it?

you guys are all getting it wrong

the reason any number of crit runes (be it 1 crit blue, or all crit quints + reds) is good is because when you DO get a crit, your opponent is required by the unwritten laws of LoL to stop laning for a second and type "/all wow real rng are you running crit runes crit more plz lol noob" and you can kill them during that time period


This is so true, happens 90% of the time.
Every misfortune is a blessing in disguise.
